OTP Christmas Scenarios That Are Sort Of Original, But Somewhat Cliché:
Handing their S/O a positive pregnancy test with a sprig of holly and a note reading ‘Merry Christmas’.
Getting trapped in a shopping mall together during after-hours in which they were christmas shopping too hard.
SWEATER PAWS AND CUDDLES.
Losing S/O at a christmas market and having to make an announcement over an intercom as to reunite them again (I’m thinking early 80’s era with fluorescent jackets and big old scarfs and brick phones that they left at home).
Fluffy, pretty, ‘princess’ character meets emo, grunge, moody character at a trashy christmas party and accidentally (drunkenly) makes them fall for them.
A competition for cringiestchristmas sweater at an office party, in which your otp comes wearing the same sweater.
Christmas Eve has your otp trapped in an elevator until late, both hungry and cold and now asleep together on the floor with bags of shopping discarded across from them.
Being hit in the face by an angry customer swinging their arms about and their S/O beating them up in the parking lot.
Christmas shenanigans under the tree, if you know what I mean.
Otp acting domestic whilst cooking their families christmas dinner and worrying about whether their parents are getting on with each other.
Planning a beautiful engagement for christmas day, only to lose the ring.
Mothering their S/O’s younger siblings and making sure they’re getting enough to eat.
Falling asleep in front of the fire whilst their S/O is playing them ‘dance of the sugar plum fairy’ on piano. They pull a blanket over them and curl up beside them.
Spilling hot chocolate/coffee/a hot-fucking-beverage on the other and insisting on paying for a new drink and new clothes for them, unaware that they’re rich and very capable of buying themselves another coffee. Besides, they don’t know that this jacket is Louis Vuitton and cost more than the knock-off Gucci belt that had caught their eye in the first place (probably looking a little lower than the belt, but we digress).
First christmas with their S/O and panicking to their best friend/sibling about what to get them. Somehow, a plushie didn’t seem exactly suitable when they knew the other had bought them an engagement ring.
Flying overseas for christmas, but having their baggage lost/delayed, meant they had to walk around their hotel room naked for a few days. That was their excuse anyway.
Burning christmas dinner and trying to order take-out (congratulations, you plebs).
Being gifted tickets to see a family member overseas, but having to leave their S/O at home for christmas, not expecting them to turn up on their doorstep on christmas morning with a bouquet of roses.
Finding their S/O drinking eggnog from the carton and crying at ‘Love Actually’ on their return from working all day. Pulling the other into their lap and kissing their forehead until they stop crying and fall asleep.
SLIPPING ON ICE, SPENDING CHRISTMAS IN HOSPITAL AND GUESS WHO THEIR DOCTOR IS??? *cue us pterodactyl screeching and them ensuing sexy shenanigans***
Decorating the christmas tree together and blowing the fuse for the electrics. Waiting in candle-light for the electricians to arrive and- let me just say- nothing stays fluffy in candle-light.
Bringing each others home country traditions to the dinner table and experiencing a weird mix of food.
Secretly learning their S/O’s mother-tongue to surprise them and be able to talk to their family at christmas.
Buying animal-proof fairy lights, confusing their S/O, but it all makes sense when there’s an ENTIRE puppy in their living room on christmas day.
Falling asleep in the passenger seat whilst their S/O drives them to a family members house for christmas, but not wanting to wake them for further directions because they look so p e a c e f u l.
Cuddling in the bathtub because it’s so cold outside and their S/O got caught in the snow on the way home from work.
Kissing under the mistletoe is underrated, go big or go home.
Sleeping in until midday because they just want to be in each other’s arms and it is so warm with them right here beside them.
Making out under the christmas tree because the lights reflecting in their S/O’s eyes just looked too ethereal for them not to kiss them until they lost their breath.
Eating dinner together and sharing kisses over the dining table. This isn’t always fun when their S/O has a hate for brussel sprouts.
Falling asleep on their significant other’s chest whilst they’re wrapping christmas presents, meaning that some aren’t wrapped the next morning because the sellotape had RUN OUT.
Failing to get the right meat and their S/O sending them back multiple times until they end up going together and realising that they weren’t even going to the right store.
Text messages asking for their S/O to put the kettle on for them as they were almost home.
Sitting on the doorstep in the cold, waiting for their S/O to come home from working on christmas day (emergency services?) and hugging them for so long whilst whispering ‘merry christmas’ into their neck and kissing any inch of skin they can reach.
Slow dancing to Frank Sinatra’s christmas songs in the kitchen and forgetting to check the potatoes in the oven.
Ice skating and them BOTH BEING REALLY GOOD ACTUALLY.
ACCIDENTALLY WEARING MATCHING NAUGHTY/NICE JUMPERS IN PUBLIC AND THEN BUMPING INTO EACH OTHER.
Avoiding the mistletoe at all costs, however, everyone is trying their best to get the otp there.
Neighbour au in which one gets drunk on mulled wine and ends up knocking at the other’s door, drunkenly trying to seduce the other and- instead- passing out in their living room.
MAKING OUT IN THE CLOAKROOM OF SOME POSH CHRISTMAS PARTY.
Just lots of making out in general. Jesus wanted us to repopulate which means fuc-
Crawling into their roommate’s (S/O’s) bed because it is too cold in their own and they want cuddles.
